We consider the functions there strictly "borrowed code", and ideally I'd rather even not to have that "chop down to funclen" logic at that level. The code at that level does not know what paths it is dealing with and cannot consult git specific data (i.e. attributes); it would make it harder to enhance it later by introducing per-path encoding information. How about... * (optional) lift the funclen limit from xdl_emit_hunk_hdr() and xdl_emit_diff() and have them preserve the full line; * Around ll.554 in diff.c::fn_out_consume(), look at line[i..eol] and apply the "chomp between character" logic there. I think it is very sensible to use the UTF-8 logic by default as you did above (but I suspect you may be able to reuse helper functions in utf8.c such as git_wcwidth(), instead of rolling your own). Chomp the funcname line given from xdiff layer in this function. * (future) make the length of the funcname line configurable either from the command line or configuration. * (future) add per-path blob encoding information (default to UTF-8) to struct emit_callback, and initialize it from the gitattributes(5) mechanism, just like we have added ws_rule recently there. Use that to decide how inter-character chomp works to customize the logic in diff.c::fn_out_consume() you would introduce above. I think the two future enhancements I listed above as examples would be cleaner to implement if the line chomping is done in fn_out_consume(). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
